Safe Lid Opening Instructions
1. Disconnect the power or the power plug.
2. Releasing pressure
A. Quick opening (for non-fluid food):
•
Slide the seal valve to the vent position.
•
Put a wet towel on the lid to cool faster until the float valve falls fully.
B. Normal opening:
•
Wait until the floating valve drops down, and then open the lid.
3. Open the lid:
Hold the lid handle, turn the lid clockwise to the unlock position and carefully lift
the lid up to open.
Caution:
• Do not open the lid until pressure inside the pot is completely released.
• Never pull out the Pressure Release Valve when it is releasing pressure.
• For fluid foods (thin, thick and sticky liquids), do not slide the Pressure Release
Valve for releasing pressure when cooking is just finished. If you do that, the hot food
fluid may spill from the Pressure Release Valve and cause bodily burn. Be sure to
disconnect the power supply.
• When a large quantity of food is cooked, do not try to release the pressure
immediately after cooking.
• It is recommended to let the food cool down for a while before releasing the
pressure.
WARNING:
Do not hold the pressure release valve. Hot steam/liquid may be ejected.
Keep hands and face away from steam vents, use pot holders when removing the
inner pot or touching any hot items, and never force the lid open. The lid will only
open once the pressure is released. Remove the lid by lifting it away from you to
avoid being burned by the steam.
